Legend Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 1 minute ago, Angry ginger said: As I told a coworker when we discussed her buying a house that she closed on last week. Right now any buy has to be considered a lifestyle buy because the easy money in RE value gains is gone. She made more on what she's selling and in exchange paid more for what shes buying. With 10+ years left before her kids will be gone it is IMO not a bad thing to do. Anyone buying a house for a short period of time right now is foolish. If i could convince the wife to sell I'd rent and wait to buy 2 houses when the market dips. Prices are stupidly high here now. I'd love to sell. But I'd hate to buy. I'm not the kind that gets antsy to get something new. No problems staying in 1 spot for long time. But kids are young. Easier to just not sell. Wife wants out though. She wanted to move to Wyoming. I actually vetoed that. And I go out west 3-4 times a winter to ride.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin george Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 We bought our place 6.5 yrs ago and could make a killing on it and we just might do that. We're looking at some property in Nova Scotia for a vacation spot that'll more and likely become our new home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, it,s amazing how many people cann,t manage money, and live paycheck, to paycheck. I just shake my head. Why should anyone care for those that don,t have a clue, or choose not to manage their money wisely. The time to start preparing for the tough times, is when the very first paycheck comes along. If you don,t get good habits established at the very beginning, it ain,t going to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
